Seeing plenty of whole cluster (60%) and bottled with no filtration or fining, the 2014 Syrah Santa Lucia Highlands sports a deep ruby/purple-tinged color as well as classic cool climate notes of dark fruits, olive, peppery herbs and smoked meat. It doesn't hide its Cali birthright on the palate though and has medium to full-bodied richness, a supple, fruit-forward character, no hard edges and a great finish. It's another terrific value that has real character and class. Go buy some bottles! - Jeb Dunnuck
